The 2014 Wrangler is one of the best off-road SUVs you can buy. The four-door version has plenty of passenger room, and the classic styling you only find on a Jeep.

Fun and functional mom car.
I was looking for a functional vehicle that is sporty and fun, but can also haul the kids. Removing the top of the jeep has made for some awesome days in good weather. The. The top can be frustrating at times because the panels are heavy, but it is definitely worth it. I have also found that the wrangler is much more quiet than I anticipated.

The most interesting detail about the jeep is the ability to be on road or off.
My car comes with actual wheel cover and black leather seats. These wonderful black seats give the jeep a luxury vibe. The seats also provided a sense of comfort for short and long rides. The white hard top gives the jeep a modern feel of everyday SUV. Great thing about jeeps are the tops are removable. This feature is one of the reasons I purchased my jeep. However, I did have a problem in the beginning with my top leaking. The rubber seals for some reason were faulty. The gas mileage is awesome and the maintenance of the jeep is pretty affordable.

I feel like jeep wranglers are the best utility vehicle on the market today.
I have a black four door wrangler. I have had no major issues with it since buying it new. It has far exceeded my expectations. I service it as recommended.

All black jeep with purple accents.
I've always wanted a jeep, and when I finally got the one I wanted I fell in love. I love everything about this vehicle. I haven't had any problems at all with my jeep. I love the fact that jeeps can be personalized to exactly how you want. No two look the same. Jeeps are basically adult legos. Do not plan on getting rid of this anytime soon!

The 2019 jeep wrangler offers a ton of customization options.
The jeep wrangler just received a major overhaul for 2018. This means a lot of the style and features will remain the same in 2019. One exciting new addition is the option of a diesel engine this year. A new advanced-safety group provides some more features to protect you and your passengers. Perhaps the most compelling new option is one that is still shrouded in mystery. Jeep should be releasing a pickup-truck model of the wrangler sometime in 2019. This would certainly add to the utility and versatility of the vehicle.

Honestly, I have no bad reviews on my vehicle.
The vehicle is a great quality. Once the vehicle hits 100,000 miles there are minor issues with the coolant, is an easy fix though. If you take the vehicle off-road then you have a risk of problems that would be related to possible damage from that activity. If the vehicle is not being used for off road it activity then the risk of problems is very minimal.

You need a jeep wrangler!
I love my jeep wrangler! It is so fun to drive and has always kept me safe. I have never really had any issues with it. It is a fun car to drive around, especially with being able to take the tops off and being able to customize it to make it your own.

Doors do not shut completely but overall great vehicle.
Great for off reading. Very comfortable, only downside is sometimes the doors do not fully shut. But I love that it is sporty and that customizable. The features are somewhat outdated due to it being an off-road vehicle and made in 2014. Would like a backup camera.

2014 jeep wrangler- good for outdoors but not long trips.
I think it is a nice looking fun car for someone young like me but the gas mileage is so poor. I am going to sell it at the end of the year because gas is just too much. It is reliable for the most part and does well off roads. It is very loud and not a smooth ride either. I had both the soft and hard top on my car but ended up selling the soft top because I couldn't find space to store my hardtop during the summer months.

You will need to replace the windshield at least once!
I don't like the noise. The jeep seems to be made completely out of plastic. It's a rougher ride than i expected.

Research the product before purchasing.
Jeep Wranglers are the perfect suv in theory. Not so much in reality. The Jeeps are not sealed very tightly therefore when it rains it pours straight in to the inside of the Jeep. I have had more than my fair share of problems with my jeep. So I'll keep it short and simple for you all. I have had to replace the motor in my Jeep along with the radiator, camshaft, and the metal that attaches the seat belt. My Jeep has less than 50,000 miles. Bought brand new. Only 1 owner. So I suggest any and all research the product before purchasing.

Fun jeep with 2 few doors.
1. The vehicle is loud but the aesthetic is nice. 2. I should have gotten a 4 door - there is very little cargo space in the back & our family loves to camp - it isn't enough room. 3. The gas mileage is also not great. Overall, I would not buy the same vehicle again.

Reliable, rugged, but loud jeep!
Reliable car, but loud (due to the hard top being screw-on) and not comfortable during long rides. The look is classic, and I always feel stylish when driving it. I love the customizability though, it allows each owner to have a unique experience with their vehicle that is tailored to them.
accountCircle Cassidy G
It is really sharp looking.
I love the look of the jeep. It is not great for long trips though. It really runs through gasoline. It is also a very bumpy ride. Does not matter if the road is bumpy or smooth... You feel everything. I would probably think long and hard on voting one of thee again.
accountCircle Rick T
Fun to drive especially with the top and sides off. 4 wheel drive nice.
Have had only two problems with the vehicle. One the radio broke for seemingly no reason and two the tire pressure indicator does not work. It is a very rough riding vehicle around town, but I guess it would be good for off road use. It is fun to take the top and sides off on nice days, though a little cumbersome to remove. Overall it is been a dependable vehicle and would recommend to others depending on their needs. Two door is a little small and really not made for 4 people.

What Problems Does the 2014 Jeep Wrangler have?

The 2014 Jeep Wrangler has more problems than the 2013 and 2015 models. It also has more complaints than other midsize SUVs in the same price range. The 2014 Wrangler problems and recalls include oil leaks, assorted airbag issues, and busted seat belts.

Engine problems, including the oil housing leaking, are the most common problems owners report with the Wrangler. To fix it you will need to replace the entire oil housing, which costs about $700 depending on local labor rates.

Electrical problems with the totally integrated power module are also frequently found on the Wrangler. The computer is a weak component in the vehicle, which has left drivers stranded with a dead SUV. Replacing it costs about $1,650.

Brake issues are also brought up by owners. The booster fails in some cases, and in others the rear brake pads get stuck engaged. Replacing the booster or caliper solves the issue, depending on what failed.

There are four recalls affecting the 2014 Wrangler. They include the tire pressure warning system, clockspring assembly, airbags, and a seatbelt buckle. All are related to safety and will not mechanically damage the vehicle, but are important to keep the driver and passengers protected.

How Does the 2014 Jeep Wrangler Compare to Other SUVs?

The 2014 Jeep Wrangler ranks 3rd out of 22 midsize SUVs based on owner reviews.

In first place is another off-road-oriented SUV, the more expensive Toyota FJ Cruiser. Both SUVs perform well on the trails, but the Toyota is more reliable. Visibility is better in the Wrangler, but the FJ is more comfortable. If you want an off-roader, it’s best to test out both.

Another competitor is the Nissan Xterra, which is much more affordable than the Wrangler. The Nissan and Jeep are both built to go off-road, but the Nissan is outdated. It also does not have the same suspension and tire setup found on the Wrangler. The Jeep is the better choice between the two.

Final Verdict: Is the 2014 Jeep Wrangler a Good SUV?

Based on 374 owner reviews, and our research from 17 government and automotive websites, yes, the 2014 Wrangler is a good SUV. Where it stands out from the crowd is with excellent off-road capabilities, and a good interior even on the base model. The Wrangler does fall short with older technology, and has lower reliability ratings than its competitors. The Wrangler is a good choice if you’re focusing on off-road driving, but you may want something different if you don’t plan on hitting the trails regularly.

Mostly love. Few dislikes.
Love the look and space in the car. Can uphold a lot of wear and tear. It is super safe. Dislike how large it is sometimes. Hard to fit into right parking spaces. I am also pretty short so it is a little big for me. Wish the interior was a bit nicer in terms of radio and upholstery.

Jeep wrangler Sahara overview.
Really poor gas mileage, can be difficult to drive in poor condition a for a new driver. Pretty comfortable but hard to get into at times. Paint seems to chip very easily and the car rusts extremely quickly on the underside. The stock soft top is very difficult to remove at times and the zippers feel cheap. The speakers are very good with the upgraded audio package.

Rugged and worth every cent!
Jeep wranglers are the ultimate rugged vehicle. That being said, the ride is bumpy, especially if you get larger tires and lift the vehicle. They are not built for speed, but can take you anywhere. Through any and all conditions, jeeps are made to take a beating and keep going. Parts and labor are also affordable. You can also find and endless number of upgrades and modifications to suit anyone’s needs.

Jeep wrangler: best for all seasons.
I have had no problems with my jeep in the 6 years I have owned it. Package I have has a hard top and a soft top roof that I interchange depending on the season. When the soft top is on it is a little louder but that is the only issue I can think of. As far as I am concerned this jeep is the best vehicle I have owned as far as reliability and driving capabilities in four seasons of weather.

I ordered my 2014 Wrangler with a (German) 6 speed transmission. It gets over 20 miles a gallon at speed. On the freeway it gets 24 mph. It now has 100,000 miles no problems except for a head gasket that a defect fixed for free. I take it to the dealer every 30,000 miles, change the oil every 5,000 miles, filters (air, cabin) every fall. I changed out the shocks once. I live in a mile 1/2 dirt road, take it into the wood lot with a trailer regularly and commuted 500 miles a week till I retired. If I ever sold it I would not take much of a loss me thinks.

The best part of owning a jeep is that you can easily customize your vehicle.
I really like the jeep wrangler Sahara unlimited because of the multiple custom options you can add to the vehicle and easy to service on your own.

Jeep wrangler jk honest review.
I love the versatility of my wrangler. The aftermarket industry is huge! I was underwhelmed by the power of the vehicle, but a few aftermarket parts will fix that. I had a couple factory issues like a couple heater core issues caused by the engine casting sand not being completely removed. The other issue was some rockers for from my valve train started failing and making squealing noises. Finally, the engine oil fill neck was plastic and cracked causing oil leakage on my engine block. Beyond that, it's a great all around vehicle that can tow small trailers and boats. Long rides have always be comfortable.

I enjoy the ability to drive on any type of terrain, in any type of weather. The Jeep is a 4 wheel drive vehicle with the ability to remove the top making my driving experience enjoyable. What other vehicle can you choose to be a convertible while also having the ability to drive in 2 feet of snow. The Jeep does not ride as smooth as a luxury vehicle but I enjoy the adventurous ride.

The ups and downs of jeep ownership.
The jeep is super fun - when the weather is perfect that is! When it is cold outside, it is very hard to regulate the temperature inside the vehicle. When it rains, it feels damp and humid. Also I prefer comforts like leather heated seats and that is simply not what a jeep is all about.

Wrangler lacks practicality.
First and foremost, the wrangler gets very low gas mileage, so I keep the vehicle as local as possible. I love the fact that the wrangler can be modified, however I do regret installing a light bar. It is incredibly loud and at times vibrates. Overall the wrangler is a great vehicle, but the practicality is extremely minimal.

It is really sharp looking.
I love the look of the jeep. It is not great for long trips though. It really runs through gasoline. It is also a very bumpy ride. Does not matter if the road is bumpy or smooth... You feel everything. I would probably think long and hard on voting one of thee again.

The jeep wrangler a fun to drive SUV.
Love my jeep wrangler. One of my favorite vehicles I have ever owned. Great for both the summer and the winter. I wish there was more space, but that is what you get with a 2 door. The jeep has been extremely reliable and a ton of fun to drive. I would recommend it to anyone interested in a fun to drive SUV. What other vehicle allows you to remove the doors and top?

A project worth loving, fix and customize to the best toy you will ever drive.
If you drive a jeep you know it is going to be a project, but my Sahara is a smooth ride. It is a great toy. You can update all kinds of things now with ease, tires lights lift kits. The best thing about jeeps is if you know a little bit about them they are very easy to work on, and often if you look at custom updates they cost less than factory parts and look better. You own a jeep if you want a fun project that you can customize to what you want. They can be practical, but if you want practical I wouldn't drive a jeep. They do however last forever, hold their value, and when they do break, like I said they are easy and inexpensive to fix.

I can go anywhere off road and can go through just about any total of snow.
Jeep can go anywhere. I put a lift kit on it and big 35 inch tires. It is a electric blue with matching hardtop.

Overall a good vehicle. Good volume and big wheels.
A problem I have with jeep is water leaks. The performance is good because the acceleration. I can rely on it but it has to have a lot of gas. The comfort isn't the best because the seats do not really support lower back and neck. The jeep has a lot of good features such as volume controller. The bass gets really loud.

Customizable and fun - make the car what you want it to be every day!
I absolutely love the Jeep Wrangler. There are so many options to make the car customizable to what you want that day - top on or top off, doors on or doors off. I have fun every day that I get to drive my car.

The ride of your life: starting a great jeep and the open road.
Very smooth ride and makes me feel safe! Would most definitely recommend to any and everyone. I love the way it makes me feel free and it was worth the money spent. It is always a great conversation starter and the jeep wave makes me feel like I have got family on the road with me.

Great for all weather conditions.
Jeeps are great. Low maintenance and durable in winter. For the price you get a lot. The ride is comfortable and good in inclement weather conditions. The removable top makes summer fun. This was my sons first vehicle. The manual transmission helped become a more confident driver.
